New 2013-2014 Form 2290 Tax Year Is One Week Away
The new Heavy Vehicle Use Tax (HVUT) year begins July 1, 2013 and runs through June 30, 2014. The Form 2290 filing deadline for all taxable vehicles for the new tax year is August 31, 2013. All tax must be paid in full by the deadline to avoid penalties.
The tax is based on the gross vehicle weight and ranges from $100 to $550 per year per vehicle. For vehicles first used during any other month than July during the tax period, the tax is prorated and due by the last day of the month following the month first used. For example, if a vehicle will be first used in December, the Form 2290 would have to be filed by January 31, 2013. There is no tax due for any vehicle used than 5,000 (7,500 agricultural) miles during a tax period. The Form 2290 return would still need to be filed, but the vehicle would be classified as a suspended vehicle, so no tax would be due. There are other circumstances where a vehicle is classified as suspended, but ExpressTruckTax enables you to identify those vehicles.
States require a stamped Schedule 1 as proof of payment for the Heavy Vehicle Use Tax in order to register the vehicle. With ExpressTruckTax you will receive your stamped Schedule 1 within minutes, so you no longer have to wait to register or renew your vehicles.

How To File Form 2290 with ExpressTruckTax
When E-Filing Form 2290 with ExpressTruckTax, you will be asked to provide the first use date for the vehicle. This dates refers to the time when the vehicle was placed in service during the tax period. If the vehicle has been placed in service for previous years and will continue to be in service this year, the first use month will be July. This is because the tax period for Heavy Vehicle Use Taxes begins in July and ends in June.
If a new vehicle is placed in service during the tax period, the first use month will be the month in which the vehicle was first used. If a vehicle was only used for part of the tax period, the tax will be prorated based on the number of months the vehicle was actually used. For example, if a vehicle was used on May 27th, it will be taxed as though it was used the entire month, regardless of the fact it was only used for a couple of days, and the tax will be based on 2 months, instead of the full year.
